Scope and content
Tacoma Mayor George Smitley addresses the crowd during the dedication ceremony for the cornerstone laying for St. Luke's Memorial Episcopal Church. The dedication is being held in front of what was known, until the reconstruction of St. Luke's began a few months prior, as St. Mark's Episcopal Church. The historic St. Luke's had stood at the corner of 6th & Broadway for over half a century. It was being dismantled stone by stone and reconstructed at this site at No. 36th and Gove St. (TDL 4/27/1936, pg.1)
